Well, it is now a few days after the election and I wanted to put down some of my thoughts in writing. The last year and a half have been an incredible experience for me. It has been an absolute pleasure getting involved in the political process and helping to build a new political option for our province is something that I will always be very proud of.

Please take a minute to read some of my final thoughts as the voters of Alberta get ready to head to the polls on Monday.

I wanted to share the information that was included in the message because I think poverty is an important issue for discussion here in the province:
